Japanese-style bedroom design options

The Japanese style of interior decoration is gaining popularity very quickly. This is due to the fact that such decoration helps to create an atmosphere of lightness and freshness even in the smallest rooms. This style is perfect for the bedroom.

Japanese style in the interior is a combination of natural materials and space saving. After all, Japan is a densely populated country, but the premises of the Japanese are often small. In the old days, bamboo rugs were used for sleeping, which could be easily removed if necessary.

But the world does not stand still, and comfort has come there too. Therefore, beds gradually began to appear, which are also located almost on the floor. And in order to achieve spaciousness and airiness, the ceilings are decorated with fabric, which is highlighted.

The modern Japanese-style bedrooms have several distinctive features.

• There should be freedom in everything, no clutter and unnecessary things. A minimum of decorations, only vital and necessary things.
• Natural shades and materials. Of course, you can use imitation of natural materials, but naturalness is preferable. It is not only safe, but will also last much longer. The most popular materials are wood, bamboo and fabric.
• Ease. All interior items are small in size, which makes them mobile. They can be easily rearranged or removed altogether.

Traditional Japanese style is a combination of understated design in both colors and furniture. After all, everyone knows that in Japan there are very small-sized houses, which does not allow the use of bulky pieces of furniture.

To dilute pastel shades, brown, dark cherry and even black colors are often used for decoration. So the interior takes on new, more pronounced outlines.

Indoors, the Japanese prefer to walk barefoot, so special attention is paid to floor coverings. The most popular are wood, bamboo laminate or parquet.

Ceramic tiles are not so popular, but they are also found. This material is very cold and is used in conjunction with a warm floor. Also, an additional carpet is used to match the color of the main design. You can often find bamboo rugs, but they have shown their impracticality, as they wear out quickly.

The walls are often covered with fabric. This looks not only stylish, but also adds coziness to small spaces. You can also often find natural wood. Sliding wood panels serve as doors between rooms and also separate dressing rooms.

Furniture for Japanese-style bedrooms, like for other rooms, is small in size. After all, the main thing is to leave as much free space as possible.

The central element of the bedroom is the bed, usually located in the center. Its shape should resemble a traditional mattress (futon) and should be located practically on the floor. Sometimes, for greater convenience, the berth is installed on a pedestal with steps.It also brings a touch of originality to the interior design.

Cabinets and bulky shelves are replaced with niches located in the walls. Instead of standard doors, it is preferable to use the "compartment" closing system. This helps to save a lot of space and keep it light. Such doors are made in light colors in a wooden frame.

The bedroom is a place that doesn't have to be brightly lit. Therefore, small lamps are suitable for lighting, the light from which is diffused and dim.

It is also best to use natural textiles and fabrics - these are cotton, linen and silk. The color scheme should be chosen in accordance with the main color of the walls. Bright traditional patterns on decorative pillows are allowed.

For true connoisseurs of the Japanese style, paintings and panels on fabrics that convey the atmosphere of oriental mystery are suitable. Sakura, the Japanese cherry, is a common attribute of the Japanese style. Her image can be both in paintings and panels, and in the decoration of the bed - bedspreads, pillows.

But the rugs should be small. The color scheme is predominantly in gray tones. Location - on both sides of the bed.
